About Chef João Pupo Lameiras

About Wine-Pairing Menu

Chef João’s expertise lies in marrying contemporary culinary techniques and typical Portuguese flavours from his heritage. Guests will embark on a five-course culinary journey with a taste of the Atlantic Ocean through Chorizo stuffed squid, shrimp sweet bread stew with cabbage and bisque, and Bread Soup with Cod and Smoked Ham. For the main courses, guests can savour Chef João’s unconventional take on the conventional Iberian Pork Fillet with Potato Clams and Escabeche, and Oxtail with Corn, Cheese Porridge and Herbs. The feast comes to a sweet conclusion with the Traditional Portuguese Fritter with Sweet Egg Cream, Cinnamon Ice-cream and Peppermint.
